At last the truth lies just around the corner, but each discovery seems to hint at a truth more and more unsettling. It becomes a race against time for both Edward and the dolphins as the age old question of 'Are we alone?' is answered.

KAI- THE OCEAN SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF A DOLPHIN
Hi, I'm Kai! I will take you on a unique and surprising journey: in my home, the ocean. Through my curious dolphin eyes, you will discover the wonders and secrets of the marine environments that my herd and I frequent. You will learn about our world, about what you don't know enough about us (apart from the so-called "clichés" about us). But that's not all! I will bring you together the inhabitants who populate the oceans and seas: vital, for our "home". Yes! Because in our "home", everyone does their part, in this incredible marine ecosystem; from small microorganisms to fish, up to us cetaceans, constituting a perfect, unique, and perpetual chain. If a part of our would be missing, everything would collapse, our "home" would collapse. Unfortunately... this risk is there, and it is always... more... near. Through my eyes, I see you human beings causing damage to my "home" and even to us who populate it. We dolphins are in danger of disappearing. Forever. Forever, even those who inhabit them and the wonderful landscapes that are reduced to deserts. For this reason, I decided to make myself and let you tell what I see with my own eyes. With the eyes of a dolphin. When you read this story, try to identify with me, try, for a moment, to be able to have my gaze. Believe me, you will have a wider and deeper view, you will immerse yourself even more in my world" - KaiComplete
